Grilled pork steak - useful tips and tricks
• Steaks should be eaten immediately after cooking "with heat, with heat." This dish does not tolerate storage and reheating.
• If the pork is dry, the piece is kept on fire, it must immediately be poured with ketchup or other tomato sauce while the meat is hot. It will move a little, soak, become softer.
• Not everyone loves steaks with blood. If the piece is not baked inside, do not try to bring it to readiness in the microwave. Only spoil everything. Preheat the pan to a haze, grease the pork with a drop of oil and warm it for several minutes on each side.
